Ella's first day of soccer

Happy birthday Ella

Ella's birthday!!!!

In a few days we will celebrate my sweet daughters birthday! (she reminds me multiple times a day that it's coming!) the thought of her birthday brings my mind to a place in Jiangxi China where my angel was given life. When I think of where Ella's life began I guess mixed emotions. Part of me wants to be angry that someone could abandon this sweet child on the side of the road. A huge part of me is so grateful that she was brought into this world, that I believe, her birth mother wanted more for Ella than she could give her and gave her up.
You see I have a strong faith and believe that everything happens for a reason and it is gods will! The lord placed Ella in that orphanage for the nannies to love until we were all ready for her to dance into our lives.
I catch myself staring at my daughter and marvel at the love she has for life. She has blessed us time and time again. She loves us unconditionally and makes my heart over pour with love and happiness! The moments when she says "mom, guess what?!"....."I love you mom!!". This child may not have been born from my womb but was born from my heart....she truly is such a gift from god. In the year and half that she has been in our arms she has brought us so, so much joy and love...I truly can not imagine our family without her. She is full of love, happiness, adventure and with her the sky is truly the limit. She is going to take this opportunity at life and sail to the top! Watch out world....Once Ella Dahai Radley walks into your life...she commands your heart and will forever hold onto it!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET ANGEL....THANK YOU LORD FOR MY SWEET BLESSINGS YOU HAVE GIVEN ME.

Xoxo...on happy momma!
